installed lights for interior door handles. Easy plug and play; includes wiring harness. The only thing is that they are a little too bright for me; for some reason they look even brighter in pics, anyway. There are three clusters of LEDs used to light each handle, so I will probably either block off one or two sets of the lights, or cut a small piece of tint and stick it over the lights. Maybe I will use a color to cancel out the blue-ishness.

You can use Buyee, Tenso, or Nyokeo to order things from Japan.

 

Nice, what does the harness plug into exactly?
I'm assuming shipping from time of order to receiving is ~1 month?

I may do this.

 

it took 2.5 weeks to arrive from order placement to my door. A lot of that time was at US customs, like 5 days.

it plugs directly into the power window switch. It taps into the same source as the light for the switches for the doors. You just unplug the the wire bundle from the door, then plug it into the new harness they give you, then plug the new harness into the door.

 

Great info - thanks.

This I'm sure will go well with the sequential lighting mod you did for your mirrors.

Any other photos you could provide to ... see the brightness/color?

I'm assuming yours is the white selection and not blue, I can't remember if these are lit/dimmed when driving, but.. who knows.

 

this is the only other photo I have rn. Now that I think about it, I did order white, but I think they sent me blue! They don’t dim, they come on when interior lights come on, so they only turn on at dusk/dawn/night depending on your sensitivity settings for autolights; of course, you can always wire it to ACC power if you want it on all the time. They are too bright for my tastes, and don’t match the muted tone of the car lighting overall. I’ll be using some dark amber tint to filter it most likely. I’ll try to update when I get that done; should be easy to do, just need to allocate an hour of my life to it when I can; will probably experiment a bit to find just the right amount of light and color.

 

They look cool. Install should be easy too, just snake the wire down to the door switch, grab it, plug plug, snap. Maybe wiring a resistor in line should cut down some of the light?
